The Huffington Post implies Jesus had a wife in their latest effort to illicit a response by using shock journalism.This is exactly why the global ignorance of the great Greek deception is so dangerous. When considering the authenticity of any Coptic text, it's important to note that the Copts (Egyptian Christians) during this time period were involved in a schism. It was the question of Christ’s divinity (Chistology) that was at the root of this schism. What resulted was two sects of people in this region (Egypt) with VERY different notions of the faith as it pertained to Yeshua. Copts are part of the non-Chalcedonian Christian churches that became the Oriental Orthodoxy : Coptic, Ethiopian, Eritrean, Syriac, Malankara Syrian (Indian Orthodox Church) and Armenian Apostolic churches. These groups considered themselves dyophysites. In simple terms they believed in two separate natures of Christ (one was very human, and the other very divine). Dualism is extremely prevalent in the east. Many Copts converted (through the influence/persecution of the Greeks: Rome) to the Chalcedonian mindset and became part of the Greek Orthodox Church of Alexandria. For more info on this research the Council of Chalcedon. The Melkites (Melchites) did not actually accept the Monophysitism of Chalcedonian Christians, but rather Miaphysitism (Christ’s Divinity and Humanity are united in one or single nature, the two being united without separation, without confusion, and without alteration). The significance of this is that most non-Chalcedonian Christians (except maybe the Melkites) did not believe in the human divinity of Yeshua. It stands to reason that this sort of writing (The Gospel of Jesus’s Wife) may have been used/created to support their position. Leave it to the great bastion of American ignorance "The Huffington Post" to purport this Coptic Apocrypha as practically being canon. If you want to give legitimacy to the "Gospel Of Jesus's Wife", then here's some other books that you would have to also give legitimacy to:

While the Gospel of Thomas is reported to mention Christ referring to a wife, that translation is still hotly debated. I'm not offended by the possibility of Christ having a wife, or even children. I'm offended by the scriptural inaccuracy of this nonsense being pushed on the world to create more confusion. So I think it's enough to say the Huffington Post title "'Gospel of Jesus' Wife' Papyrus Is Ancient, Not Fake, Scientists And Scholars Say" could also read 'Gospel of Jesus' Wife' Papyrus Is Ancient, but so are Egyptian hieroglyphics.

Do you know the difference between the Tabernacle, and the Temple? Did you know that the Father never requested the Temple David desired to build? In fact, according to David, the Father told him NOT to build the Temple.
